The ESC is fine for right now. I just want one that is more competitive. I will definitely get a transponder first. Even though they offer transponders at my track for 5 dollars per race day, it is still good and cheaper in the long run to have one. Plus during practice I can see my lap times.

Starting out focus on your driving and just make sure you have the right tires.. whatever everyone else is running. I'm being hypocritical but you could save a lot of money and have just as much fun without marginal upgrades.
